Daily Dose of Doom Thread

It's not even that. They could at least attempt to claim that when they were targeting vaccine mandates. Now they are trying to limit access to vaccines that people voluntarily want. It's never been about "My body, my choice" it's always been about winning a culture war.

Power and control.

Correct. It's always been "you aren't allowed to tell me what to do but also it's illegal to get mad at me too"

You aren't allowed to tell me what to do ... but of course I'm allowed to tell you what to do.

The U.S. Department of Education has abruptly terminated nearly $11 million for two grant programs that have been helping Wisconsin serve children with vision and hearing loss and others receiving special education services, according to the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction.

Wisconsin is one of several states to be affected by the cuts to Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) Part D grants. Others include Washington, Oregon and a consortium of New England states including Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont, according to ProPublica.

Wisconsin Superintendent Jill Underly called on the Trump administration to reconsider the decision in a statement this week.

"Make no mistake, losing these funds will directly impact our ability to serve some of our most vulnerable kids," Underly said. "Wisconsin had planned work with these funds that includes direct support for deafblind learners and their families and efforts to recruit and retain new special education teachers."

According to DPI, the Trump administration said the programs "reflect the prior administration's priorities and policy preferences and conflict with those of the current administration."

Good. The only thing worse than the poors are kids with disabilities. Eff 'em!

Don't let the government take over of media distract you from the same government willingly make decisions to kill children and cause sickness

It really is. You're not exaggerating.

As a person who takes their kid to sane doctors, what does that mean for us? I assume they will still recommend the shot. Will it be less available? Not covered by insurance at all?

I don't have answers to your questions. But hopefully you don't live in Florida.

I read it may vary by state. Some states may require a prescription for a COVID shot for example.

In Connecticut I was reading yesterday that anyone can get a COVID shot and it will be covered by insurance.

Systemic racism and police violence. Can't beat that mix for fun!

I know this thread is all doom and gloom, but can we just take a moment to be thankful that the long and bloody war between Cambodia and Armenia has come to an end?

This is not going to change anything.  Those who know better have tuned it out.  Those who believe it already believed it.

Happy Rapture Day!  Looking forward to the tribulations

[tower912]

Perhaps it has already happened and your posts are the tribulations.
 


Yeah, in a panic sweat over it.

I won't get raptured.  I've taken Tylenol in my life 😕

Oh well. Humankind has had a mostly mediocre run.

Thanks to the vax, my DNA is no longer fully human, making me ineligible for the rapture.

"I am selling my car due to the rapture".   

What are you doing with the money?

And, are you doing market value or best offer?

Because there are a few I would consider at some ridiculously low number.
